1960s Upholstered Armchairs by F. Jirák for Tatra, a Pair

About the Item

A pair of upholstered armchairs by Czech furniture manufacturer Tatra. Attributed to designer František Jirák who is known for his striking case pieces and wall units, and for playful compact furniture that distinguish Czech Design of the mid-20th century. Made in the 1960s, the stylish monochromatic design bears the hallmarks of Midcentury Modern simplicity. A low-set seat on angled legs is framed by the fluid lines of the bentwood armrests. The arms curve upwards and downwards with dynamism, punctuated by a quick turn following the line of the angled chair leg. The linen white upholstery makes a clean contrast with the dark finish of the wood; a light patina gifts a subtle nostalgia.
